A bath is not a bath without soap. We use soap to keep our bodies clean and refreshed. More than that, soaps also help in keeping our skin glowing and healthy. Now with the hundreds or thousands of brands in the market worldwide, we tend to get confused on which one to pick and more often than not, we end up changing from brands to another. To avoid this, here are a few tips on how to choose the right soap for your body:
If you have an oily skin, your skin produces much natural oil called sebum. Oily skin indicates overworked sebaceous glands and is more prone to acne. If you are having this type of skin, you should wash your face frequently and avoid strong soaps. Soaps that have sea salts, brown sugar or peach pits are good for an oily skin because these are gentle and works by clearing out extra oil, thus, reducing damage to the skin. If your skin is not too sensitive, you can as well try mild exfoliating soaps.
A dry skin means a very low release of sebum in your body. A soap that is appropriate for this is something that should contain moisturizing ingredients such as a glycerin. A glycerin contains moisturizing properties and gives moist to the skin for a longer time. Additionally, soaps with oil, cocoa butter, coconut and jojoba oil, avocado oil, and aloe vera is also a great choice.
A sensitive skin this time means luck! There are more soap for sensitive skin that are available in the market today and all you need is one that has a balanced pH level without any added colorants and perfume.
And finally, for a normal skin that means in between too much oil and too dry, herbal soaps can be good for you. This could help you maintain the condition of your skin or improve them.
